Homeschool Rhythms: Individual Work

Get Started· High School· Homeschool· Therapy

11 Oct

So far in this “Homeschool Rhythms” series we’ve talked about morning time, narration, getting ready, and group work. Today let’s talk about individual work!

When you ask a seasoned homeschooler about structuring the day, you will often hear the same refrain: “combine as many subjects as you can.” But what about the ones you can’t combine? The ones that children really need a certain set of skills to master?

You can generally look at academics in two categories: skill-based subjects and non-skill-based subjects. Skill-based subjects are really best taught 1-on-1 or in a very small group of kids at a similar level of skill. I like to chunk these into three categories: Language (learning to read, write, and speak other languages), STEM-L (science, tech, engineering, math, and logic), and Personal Development (spiritual growth, citizenship, arts, and therapy to name a few). In this episode, I’m going to focus on the best way to teach these three categories.

IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL HEAR:

  • Which subjects are best taught as individual work
  • Why 1-on-1 time is worthwhile
  • How to do 1-on-1 time with multiple kids
